Chon family charged with tax evasion

The family owners of a popular spa destination in Queens have been indicted on felony charges for failure to pay $1.5 million in taxes over the course of three years, authorities announced Wednesday.

The owners of Spa Castle Inc., a 100,000-square foot spa facility in College Point, Queens, didn't pay the sales, withholding, corporate and MTA surcharge taxes they owed from 2010 through 2013, state officials say.

"The scale of theft alleged in this case is staggering," said Acting Commissioner of Taxation and Finance Nonie Manion, who announced the indictment along with Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
The investigation began when authorities executed a search warrant at Spa Castle Inc. in August 2015, and found records showing the spa owners underreported earnings and paid workers and vendors in cash.

"Oh, God ... oh, God" while they're getting a private "massage," does that make it a church?------------------------------------Technically yes, private membership and bring your own booze also. This is much how Plato's Retreat and Lucky's lounge in Sunnyside operated in the 70's !Perhaps the city is going back to the 1970, nothing is being enforced. Only traffic camera & alleged cracked sidewalk tickets where some sanctioned city contractor offers to fix your problem for $1800-$3,500

Can we sentence a few groups of tax evaders to terms long enough that others will get the idea that it's not in their interest? I think they used to call it a "deterrent". Sort of the idea behind sentencing.

one wonders if they are some of the millions of VISA-WAIVER OVERSTAYS in C.D.6? and use P.S.$20,000 /yr . seats.?Call I.C.E. do away with Sanctuary city. Sign :IMMIGRATION PAUSE .ORG to petition your U.S.Senators/Reps.

That's all they do is avoid taxes! Look at bayside with all their "churches " half of China and Korean are non religious so why do they have so many churches? It's to avoid paying taxes and the church buys up many houses and collects rent from their own people and they don't pay a dime of property taxes on any of them because churches don't pay taxes! All they preach in their churches is how to cheat the government out of money!

I've been to another Korean one in Flushing, the Russian bath in Manhattan and the other Russian bath in Queens and on in Turkey and one in Japan.

They're all a little different but what are you trying to say?

"" It's just a sauna/bath like everywhere else in the world"">>>Good lord :) :) you must be a Queens voter. Are you kidding ? Have you ever been to one of the "saunas" in Flushing, Little Neck, Tailand or Russia ?

"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt
